Did you know we offer free, confidential support? It's easy to get help fast. Our Warm Line is answered by real parents who’ve been there—through postpartum depression, anxiety, birth trauma, and more. Now on the other side, they’re here to walk with you through the struggle of new parenthood.

You don’t need a mental health diagnosis. You just need to be human. Because let’s be honest, parenting is HARD, and none of us should do it alone.

The Warm Line needs YOU!

Ever wondered how your lived experience with a perinatal mental health issue (like depression, anxiety, etc) could help others? Talking to another parent who has been through the pain and struggle can reduce the feelings of isolation and stigma that many new parents feel.

We are looking for parent volunteers, including LGBTQ+ parents and BIPOC parents, to assist those contacting our Warm Line for support. Our Next Volunteer Training is March 28 & 29, 9-2:30 pm on zoom. REGISTER TO VOLUNTEER HERE: https://perinatalsupport.org/event/warm-line-volunteer/

PS-WA board member Myla Rugge, who has worked with parents for 17 years, can attest to the shared experiences all parents face. That is one of the many reasons she chooses to support us. Your gift today can ensure that no one feels alone in their struggle or afraid to speak up and get help.

You don't have to figure this out on your own. Call or text 1-888-404-7763 this holiday season or anytime throughout the year. The Warm Line was started by parents who never wanted another parent to feel alone and not know what to do. We can help get you into services, make a plan, find resources, share our stories, and just listen.

When we support parents, we strengthen entire families—and that includes fathers.

Too often, dads are expected to navigate the emotional realities of pregnancy, birth, and early parenting on their own, with little preparation and even less support. CS experienced isolation, fear, and perinatal depression that nearly overwhelmed him, until our Dads Support Group became a lifeline at a critical moment. His experience shows what donor support makes possible: free, compassionate care for fathers who might otherwise struggle in silence, and stronger, healthier futures for their children.

Your gift today funds inclusive, accessible support groups, free and low-cost therapy, the toll-free Warm Line, and culturally matched peer support across all our programs. Please donate today at: perinatalsupport.org/donate
